Chapter 375: Slapping Yvonne In The Face!
She looked just as if she had suffered some kind of injustice.
Warren was aware that Yvonne had been stripped of her authority to manage the household. When he heard what she said, he subconsciously assumed that it was Maureen who was fighting with her over a dress.
Taken aback, he turned to Maureen and asked, “What dress is she talking about, dear?”
He grabbed Maureen and led her to the side. “I get it now. It’s time to custom-make clothes today again, right? Did you get angry again?”
During the past few years, the aggressive Maureen would always get angry once a year.
After Warren found out about it, he would always go out of his way to make her happy during those few days. He either took her out shopping or took her overseas for a vacation.
He subconsciously tried to persuade her and said, “Didn’t we already agree on this? It’ll be fine once she marries into another family. You’ll have the biggest say in the family after that! And you can choose all the clothes you want after that! Her marriage with the Hunts has already gone up in smoke now, so her future husband’s family definitely won’t be as good as the Smiths. What’s the point in fighting with her over a dress…”
“What’s the point in fighting with her over a dress”…
That one line of his instantly made Maureen feel even more aggrieved.
Even though someone had bullied her at home, she still thought of being considerate toward her husband and son, but what about her husband? All he did was take his sister’s side in everything!
Maureen stared at Warren. She was really hurt this time. She said, “Do you think I would get angry just because of a dress?”
Warren scratched his head.
As a man with low EQ, he really was rather dense when it came to how girls thought.
Next to them, Yvonne said, “Don’t lose your temper at Warren, Maureen. I already said that I would let you have that dress… It was my fault. I should have noticed that you liked that dress and not taken it for myself…”
Her hypocritical words put Maureen at such a loss for words that she couldn’t say anything at all.
Yet, Warren actually believed her. He walked over to Yvonne and said, “Since you are so generous, then I won’t stand on ceremony, Yvonne. Haha, how about this? I’ll take you out tomorrow for some clothes shopping, okay?”
Yvonne smiled and replied, “You’re standing too much on ceremony if you say that, Warren. We’re family; I should give in to Maureen once in a while.”
“… You’re the most sensible one, after all. Don’t hold it against Maureen!”
Nora stared at Yvonne. Her two-faced behavior in front of the men of the Smiths wasn’t anything surprising to her anymore.
She merely thought that Yvonne looked very laughable at the moment.
Maureen, however, was furious. It was clearly Yvonne who had snatched her dress, yet she looked like the insensible one now!
With her eyes red, she shouted furiously, “Warren! Smith!”
Warren immediately looked back at her timidly. “Dear… What’s the matter? The dress is already yours now. Why… are you still unhappy?”
Maureen was so angry that her chest heaved up and down.
She stared at Yvonne and sneered, “You really have a way with schemes, don’t you?”
Yvonne lowered her head. “Are you still upset, Maureen? In that case, will it do if I give you all the clothes I picked?”
The EQ-less Warren immediately nodded. “Yeah, it will! Dear, look at how Yvonne has already given in. As they say, harmony in the family brings prosperity. Let’s let this matter go…”
Maureen: “!!”
She was so angry that she simply couldn’t say anything. Her finger trembled as she stared and pointed at Yvonne. Then, she pointed at Warren. “You’d rather believe her over me?”
